Leamington makes a proposition to Georgy – a legal contract in which she'll be his mistress and he'll provide her with all the money and luxuries she wants – which she isn't too sure of accepting. Then Meredith finds herself pregnant with her boyfriend Jos's (Alan Bates) baby, and Georgy takes full advantage of the contract and throws herself into Motherhood, while Jos falls for her.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Based on a novel by Margaret Forster, this film was nominated at the 39th Academy Awards for Best Actress (Redgrave), Best Actor in a Supporting Role (Mason), Best Black-and-White Cinematography, and Best Original Song. It was also nominated for six Golden Globes (with Redgrave winning for Best Actress – Comedy or Musical) and four BAFTAs.

Georgy's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Parkin, in the novel; it's implied she serves as The Beard and Extreme Doormat in the marriage.

Alpha Bitch: Played with in that there isn't a Girl Posse, but Meredith often acts like Georgy is her servant.

'60s Hair: The dreaded and less dreaded Beehive Hairdo that Georgy sports, Meredith wears her hair long in a Jean Shrimpton-esque flip, Jos wears a haircut that would make him fit in with The Rolling Stones, and Georgy later wears her hair loose in a set bouffant.

Adaptational Attractiveness: James Leamington is described as a fat man in the novel, whereas in the film he's portrayed by the much more svelte James Mason.

As it looks, Georgy and James will have a Sexless Marriage since Georgy only married him for the sake of keeping Sara.
